Some update.

I tried several compilers, all fail due to the wrong xerces-c library. 
The new USGS software package expects version 3.1.1 of xerces-c. Simply 
installing the new xerces-c library by compiling, installing to another 
path and referring to the new lib path etc. doesn't work properly, since 
there are some conflicts with the original installed xerces-c2 2.7 
library. I had to deinstall xerces-c2 package from the ports first, 
compile and install ISIS3, then reinstall xerces-c2 since it is 
neccessary by some other important ports we've installed. Xalan-c is 
also a candidate relying on xerces-c2, and a prerequisite for ISIS3, but 
so far, I did not recognize any conflicts or misbehaviour. But this is 
still a worse situation.
